Your reply to your DS made me smile Mrs Moneypenny.
Ironing finished. I've started mucking out the littlies room. The wheelie bins will be bursting by the time I have finished.
DS3 twisted his ankle last night and is hobbling today. DD2 is as much use as a chocolate teapot so I'm on my own in the deepest recesses of the toy boxes. FLING!!!0 -
Manic Monday
Flinging and Flying in the family room - living room
15 minutes?
A tidy room LOOKS like a clean room so- [STRIKE]empty waste bins
- open window to let in fresh air
- remove anything that belongs elsewhere to be rehomed
- plump cushions
- wipe over coaster/sticky, icky tables

- [STRIKE]quick run round with Henry or Hetty or whatever's on suction duty[/STRIKE]
[STRIKE]wipe switches, sockets and sticky door marks[/STRIKE]
EXTRAS- [STRIKE]It's almost August so check your diary and see what birthday (etc) cards you might need for the month. Add them, and stamps if you need them, to your shopping list[/STRIKE]

Fuddle Thanks forthat and hope your pill keeps working for you.
Honey Bear Haveyou tried E45? It is expensive but worthit – Body Shop Hemp stuff.
Pigpen I’m more on Noriday/Cerazette forstopping periods rather than just contraception. Your outlaws brings a packed lunch. I’d be tempted to fire them outside so theycould have a picnic (hopefully when it’s raining)
Lamewolf Not been to a witches market in ages. It’s never a good idea for me to go there asI want to buy everything in site. Just as well there aren’t any in ShetlandGoingto call the doctor this morning and see what they say. You’ve also reminded me I forgot to getvinegar yesterday. Got enough for onewash but not for anything else.

Your reply to your DS made me smile Mrs Moneypenny.
thing is hes known for about 3 weeks it was coming up, but they sent an email last week with day and time on so he knew it wouldnt be wise to have a drink last night (he doesnt drink often but he is 18) the drugs list was a different matter there were so many they were test for even ketamine (sp) was on there someone told us that vitamins cough medicine etc could cause a negative reading so ive been obsessed by anything hes eaten or drunk monster and red bull were banned substances in our house after i read the letter (i do worry for england)
hes gone off for a haircut now, he got told he will be issued with uniform on his first day oh goodie more clothes to wash.

Morning all! Thanks Valli for explaining spoons to me. Which one (s) does this affect? I'm sorry to hear this.
My morning has started ok , WM on, 3 more loads sorted, kids decluttered to MIL so I can start painting out bedroom. So far I've tidied it and mostly emptied it but I'm so hot I've sat down for 5. Just remembered I've not had any breakfast so I better get that sorted so I don't get dizzy (have over-active thyroid).
Will post my list later if I get any marked off!Cross Stitch Challenge Member ?Number 2013 challenge = to complete rest of millenium sampler.0 -

Still hissing down with rain, and the Met Office site is still having trouble locating Plymouth - and Exeter, which is a bit odd, considering that's where it actually is. I can only think the problem may be linked to Virgin telling me that they've upgraded us. Hey ho.
I've had to research marriage at sea for the chaps, and it appears to me that the idea that a ship's captain could marry people is a bit of a nonsense - it always had to be someone who was legally licensed and being a ship's captain didn't automatically make them so. Does anyone have any knowledge or expertise about this issue? All help gratefully received.
Quite a bit of Monday's and Tuesday's lists were covered yesterday during my Flying marathon, but a kitchen drawer will be turned out today, the oven floor will have a right seeing-to (ooh err) and switches.

Julie, the food recycling bin in my house is known as the maggot bin, when it was first issued a couple of years ago by the council, within 2 days there were maggots in there, yuk......
Mrs moneypenny, maybe now is the time to start your son on washing his own clothes! remember if it is uniform, that 'you' are expected to launder at home, and the company does not pay you to launder it, phone the HMRC and get your son a uniform launder at home tax code, you will need his Nat Ins number and the employer PAYE ref, or better still get him to ring, it took me about 5 mins in all, and I get in effect £90 per year!
There is a thread somewhere on this site about it!! found it

Right advise:- where do you all keep your memory sticks from computor back ups?
